- Soldiers encounter dangerous side effects of bioterrorism vaccine ...: About 200 service members have developed complications associated with the smallpox vaccination that were serious enough to require hospitalizatio n or absence from work, according to Lt. Col. Patrick Garman of the Military Vaccine Agency. Problems included inflammations of the brain and parts of the heart. Most of these people recovered, but in one case in 2003, two expert panels concluded that a group of standard deployment vaccines, including the one for smallpox, probably contributed to the death of Army Specialist Rachel Lacy.

- Review: Smallpox: The death of a disease by D.A. Henderson - 27 May 2009 - New Scientist: One of the biggest killers in history, smallpox is the only disease to have been successfully wiped out. "How did you do it?" I asked him. He chuckled, lowered his voice, and said: "By breaking every rule in the WHO book."... Now I know what he meant, as Henderson has finally written his own personal account of that campaign. The WHO has changed since then, partly due to the experience of smallpox eradication, and now he can write of how proud he is to have worked for the organisation. Yet his tale of how smallpox was killed is a detailed object lesson in how to do the impossible on a shoestring budget, with a bureaucracy that doesn't want to know. It would be useful reading for anyone dealing with similar organisations today.
